February Flashback: tblade predicts IA, VA, & MO “in play” for Dem nominee

November 6, 2008 By tblade

Georgia? Bush beat Kerry by 548,000 votes (or 58% to 41%) while McCain bested Obama by only 211,000 votes (52% to 47%). Very respectable progress. Missouri? An Obama loss, but definitely in play. McCain won by only 5,858 votes compared to … [Read more...]

Giving ALL states some attention in a Presidential election

November 5, 2008 By Christopher

This has what I believe to be the added benefit of shortening the voting season.  If we used this formula for 2012 based on yesterday's results, the schedule would be as follows: Primary 1 - DC, VT, HI, WY, OK Primary 2 - MA, RI, DE, … [Read more...]

Poll: Are you secretly happy John Kerry lost in 2004?

Breaking: Ronald Reagan Endorses Obama!

October 29, 2008 By tblade

Through the magic of imaginative YouTube editing, of course.  This video may not be "accurate", but I'm sure it will rub wrong some Reagan disciples, which makes it doubly entertaining. … [Read more...]

Sarah Palin’s Red State (by “Red” I mean commie!)

October 29, 2008 By tblade

Here's an enjoyable op-ed by Keith Olbermann about fraudulent Sarah the Governor proudly touting her state's communist tendencies. I know David and other BMGers have continually hit Palin on Alaska's redistribution of oil wealth, but this … [Read more...]

The last thing we need!

October 10, 2008 By Christopher

I just saw a news item on Channel 5 about misprinted ballots in upstate NY.  Apparently some absentee ballots already mailed listed the Democratic nominee as Barack Osama.  The error has been caught and the unmailed ballots will … [Read more...]

September 23, 2008 By tblade

2008 Republican Platform: We do not support government bailouts of private institutions. Government interference in the markets exacerbates problems in the marketplace and causes the free market to take longer to correct itself. We believe … [Read more...]
